For me, this ended up being a CPU stability issue. I could run Aida64 fine, OCCT fine, Prime95 fine (with and without AVX), RealBench fine, and then I tried LinX and IntelBurnTest, those failed very quickly. I ended up increasing my CPU voltage slightly and was able to play for the rest of the night without issues. I let IntelBurnTest run overnight and continue while I'm at work today, its survived about 8hrs at this point.
I run an 8700K@5ghz 1.36v, I pushed that up to 1.37v with an AVX offset of 2.
I'm sure this isn't relevant to most in here but figured I'd share what worked for me.

I wonder how many of these people having this issues are overclocking. Would be good to know.
I was constantly crashing with the DXGI errors. I crashed 6 games in a row before I downgraded to 417 drivers. That stopped the DXGI errors but then the game crashed with no error at all. I checked the event viewer, and it was showing an application error related to "bad_module_info".
I then took the "throw everything at it" approach: I reduced all in game graphics settings by half. I dropped my video card OC entirely. I loaded into bios, reduced my overclock from 4.9 to 4.8ghz. Reduced XMP from 3200 to 3000. I was able to finish 4 games in a row without a crash. So it is looking hopeful but maybe I've just been lucky. I need to do more testing and start adjusting the options I changed to see what triggers a crash.
Perhaps these issues are caused by people running "stable" overclocks that aren't truly stable.
My system:
9700k @ 4.8ghz 1.27v 0 AVX offset
Gigabyte RTX 2080 Gaming OC
16gb ram
- 6 years agoI was having crashes as well with errors mentioned above. I don't know if this is applicable in any of your situations, but I rolled back my rtx 2070 driver from the newest version to the 4.17 version that came out in January. Since then, I've had SIGNIFICANT fps boost and the game has not crashed. Like the guy said above me it's only been around 5 games but it has been working. Rolling back my driver version has been working for me thus far.

Mine is not overclocked at all and it’s still crashing almost every game. I am running it at max settings though
